The GROOVE-TURN tools are multifunction turning tools, able to operate in a sequence of grooving and turning modes. Moving from turning to grooving requires consideration of the basic GRIP principle, thereby eliminating the possibility of insert breakage. In this situation one must release the side deflection which is necessary in turning, but not recommended in grooving.
